Homeland Security recently published an extensive report, which deserves the attention of warriors against terrorism. It is titled โSecure Borders and Open Doors: Preserving Our Welcome to the World in an Age of Terrorism.โ The following recommendation in the report, which would result in the greater scrutiny of foreign students entering the U.S., concerns the tightening up of โvisa policy and processingโ:
The Department of State should expand its use of management practices related to visa processing to include more monitoring of outcomes and the achievement of specific resultsโincluding a maximum 30-day wait time for visa interviews and improvements in security and error reductionโwith systematic goals, performance metrics, feedback, and improvements in outcomes from year to year.
